Study Notes
Development Milestones in Infancy
- At 2 months, infants can hold their head up, push when lying on their tummy, and display smoother movements with their arms and legs.
- By 4 months, infants can hold their head steady and unsupported, push down on their legs when on a hard surface, and may roll over from their tummy to back.
Development Milestones in Early Childhood
- Between 6-8 months, infants can roll from their tummy to back in both directions, sit without support, and stand while supporting their weight with their legs.
- Infants can also rock back and forth, sometimes crawling backward before moving forward.
- Between 9-11 months, infants can stand while holding on to furniture, get up into a sitting position, and pull themselves up to stand.
- They can also sit without support, crawl, and react to rhythmic stabilizations.
Development Milestones in Late Childhood
- Between 12-14 months, infants can sit up without help, pull themselves up to stand while holding on to furniture, and may take a few steps without holding on.
- They can also stand alone and have adequate control of their pelvis but not their ankle and feet.
- Note: Potty training typically occurs between 3-5 years due to the development of the corticospinal tracts.
